A. the first medicine will always be paracetamol and it is given according to weight and power of paracetamol medicine you are having. give liquids and easily digestible food and paracetamol should be given only after food. keep the child in cool environment and avoid using woolen clothes when the child is having fever armpit temperature of hundred or more is considered as fever to body sponge to decrease the surface temperature and should be carriedx out for at least 20 minutes with normal temperature water. higher medicines (ibugesic / meftal-p) whether required or not will be told by the doctor.

A. Till the time it does not touch 99 it is a completely normal body temperature maybe the body is feeling warm to you but it’s not fever still I would recommend you to do sponging that is going to help in reducing down the temperature that you feel is creating warm into the body
